David Weiss: 2 PolicyBombs on record

No full scorecard rows yet. Their documented positions are listed below, each with its source and that PolicyBomb's grade. They are not counted in a tally until the full row (author, votes, signer, funders) is sourced.

Grades rest on measured outcomes in each PolicyBomb, not on motives. Every line links to its receipt.

Positions on record

As recorded in each PolicyBomb's "who supports / who opposes" research. Not counted in the tally.

Policy #12: Two-Tier Justice: Allies vs Opponents in Federal Charging Mixed

Rejects selective-prosecution claim: Weiss report Jan 2025. Weiss special counsel report. justice.gov

Listed in the research as: Special Counsel David Weiss

Verdict: Two-tier patterns are partially substantiated: preferential plea architecture for Hunter pre-collapse, a parental pardon attacking DOJ, and asymmetric prosecutorial energy between Jan. 6 and 2020 unrest.

Policy #35: Biden Pardons: Family Preemptive Clemency and Related Grants Harmful

Against characterization of DOJ: Weiss report Jan 2025. Weiss special counsel report. justice.gov

Listed in the research as: SC David Weiss

Verdict: Legal under the Constitution; rotten for equal justice. A president pardoning his convicted son and preemptively shielding relatives is the textbook conflict the Framers left to voters' judgment, vote accordingly.
